I hope everyone had a piece of pie to celebrate Pi Day! (3-14)! I'm still hard at work on PI IN THE SKY, but it's getting there! It should be out next spring.


In fact, I have to get back to writing even though it's almost midnight! No rest for the writer on deadline! :)

“Do you ever think if people heard our conversations they'd lock us up?"
All the time.”
Wendy Mass, Jeremy Fink and the Meaning of Life

“A fight is going on inside me," said an old man to his son. "It is a terrible fight between two wolves. One wolf is evil. He is anger, envy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride, superiority, and ego. The other wolf is good. he is joy, peace, love, hope, serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, empathy, generosity, truth, compassion, and faith. The same fight is going on inside you."

The son thought about it for a minute and then asked, "Which wolf will win?"

The old man replied simply, "The one you feed.”
Wendy Mass, Jeremy Fink and the Meaning of Life

“Maybe some things aren't meant to be known. maybe there just meant to be accepted.”
